This event is free and open to the public.


Austin Museum Day is a citywide event which offers free admission and includes special programs and activities at museums and cultural institutions across the city. This year's Austin Museum Day at the NCHM features:

  • live music

  • a local art market

  • a self-portrait making activity

  • ice cream & lemonade making

  • lawn games & scavenger hunts

  • free admission to the Museum

Make the NCHM a part of your Austin Museum Day, enjoy the outdoor activities, then come inside the Museum with free admission to see one of Austin's oldest residences.

NCHM staff will lead a free self-portrait making activity from 11am - 3pm, inspired by the art exhibition, Liberating Black Art, on display now inside the Museum.

Our friends at Math Happens will lead a fun and educational activity, and Lemon Bars by Jackie will be selling her scrumptious baked goods.

Dynamic art, live music, living history, and sweet treats; what could be better!? Mark your calendar and come see us on September 17th!
